Having arrived early for a Kraftwerk concert in what was the Hammersmith Odeon back in 1981, I was looking around when Sal Solo walked down the aisle and sat in a seat a few rows behind me. Coincidentally, I had seen Classix Nouveaux just a few weeks before. I wondered whether to bother him, but since he was dressed in full stage gear I figured he was hardly incognito so I decided to say hello, making a point of saying I liked some obscure album track to prove I was a "true" fan. He was polite and patient and signed the back of my ticket (see above) so I went away happy. Not a great story but a good excuse to post a couple of tunes.
Here are both sides of an early Classix Nouveaux single. I remember these as being the highlight of their show:
mp3: Classix Nouveaux - The Robots Dance (1980) (Buy)
mp3: Classix Nouveaux - 623 (1980) (Buy)

Always loved "Guilty..."
I love the fact that when he left the band he went (Sal) solo.
(but then I've always been very easily pleased.)
Jon,
So did I so I've added the video.
Kippers,
You are Guilty of the worst pun to appear on these pages for several days (at least).
Oh come on, it was much worse than that! ;)
Yes it was. I was being kind ;)
Thanks. Just so as we're clear.
It's like the New Romantic Prom! Thanks for the flashback...
